Deadpool has a new buddy in the coming second arc of his Marvel NOW series from writers Gerry Duggan and Brian Posehn: a low-level demon named Vetis who trades in souls. Wade Wilson has always had friends in low places, but dabbling in the diabolical might be a bad idea even for him.

Does Deadpool have concerns for his own soul? We got the inside scoop on the Merc with a Mouth's so-called “morals” direct from Gerry and Brian.

Marvel.com: Deadpool's not a hero, so what's his place in the eternal struggle between good and evil?

Gerry Duggan: Deadpool doesn't differentiate between devils and people. They're all still out for the same thing: themselves.

Brian Posehn: What Gerry said. Wait, what did Gerry say?

Marvel.com: Does Deadpool ever have moral dilemmas?

Gerry Duggan: He does, and he even feels guilt but he'll of course have a joke at the ready to cover up for those feelings. Deadpool is on a path in this story, and it's a little like a ride at an amusement park. You might not know exactly what you'll experience on the ride, but you know exactly where you'll end up. In order to succeed he's going to have to figure out how to "break the ride" and not play the Demon's game. It's is "Kobayashi Maru" moment.
